Data collection system for machine learning

Abstract

A data collection system for machine learning that is configured to collect data containing personal information from vehicles while administrating the collected personal information tightly. The data collection system comprises a control unit and a human-machine interface. The control unit comprises a power switch recognizer and a human-machine interface controller. The control unit is configured to collect data from the vehicle to perform machine learning while the power switch is on, and confirm an intention of the user to use the data of the vehicle for machine learning via the human-machine interface.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A data collection system that collects data used for machine learning from a vehicle:
 wherein the data includes personal information of a user of the vehicle, the data collection system comprising:   a control unit that controls the vehicle; and   a human-machine interface that offers information to the user of the vehicle, and that is operated by the user,   wherein the control unit comprises a switch recognizer that determines that a power switch of the vehicle is turned on, and a human-machine interface controller that controls the human-machine interface, and   the control unit is configured to   confirm at least one of an intention of the user to use the data of the vehicle for machine learning and an intention of the user to collect the data of the vehicle for machine learning, via the human-machine interface.   
     
     
         2 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the data associated with the intention of the user that is confirmed includes data relating to the personal information of the user. 
     
     
         3 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the human-machine interface is configured to indicate a plurality of queries on the human-machine interface. 
     
     
         4 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the queries include a query to confirm a percentage of the data that is approved by the user to be collected from the vehicle or used for machine learning. 
     
     
         5 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the queries include a query to confirm a kind of the data that is approved by the user to be collected from the vehicle or used for machine learning. 
     
     
         6 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the control unit further comprises:
 an incentive calculator that calculates an incentive compensation to be paid to the user or an owner of the vehicle in accordance with an amount and demand of the data approved by the user to be used for machine learning; and   an incentive transmitter that pays the incentive compensation calculated by the incentive calculator to the user or the owner.   
     
     
         7 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the incentive compensation is increased with an increase in the amount of the data used for machine learning. 
     
     
         8 . The data collection system as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the incentive compensation is increased with an increase in the demand of the data that is insufficient to perform machine learning.
